MI LADY.....

This is "Mi Lady" a villager in Beauty & the Beast. Isn't she adorable?? :-)

We went to the library today to see "fairy tales" presented by the Karp Kiddos and their mom. Very good, and very funny. Rapunzel was my personal favorite!! I think there was a good 15-20 feet of looooooong hair!!!

Dean is sculpting. Also he has carved the head of an Indian girl. The master carver he carves with, said that Dean was better than 95% of first-time carvers! Quite a complement. You can look him up---Don Effinger on line, and see some of his carvings, including the Indian Girl that Dean is trying to imitate. His site is: thewildlifesculptor.com

Also, if you would like to see a multitude of pictures taken during the play, and the rehearsals, go to htpp://bb.birdco.net

There's tons of pictures, and if you click on the ones that have dates on them, you will see ALL the pictures taken on that particular date!!

So far we are enjoying the summer. For me----having Netflix, has made a big difference in my happiness! :-) We've had lots of kiddos already, the 4 Karps, and Nick (our oldest grandson, adopted), and have had lots of fun times with all of them. And lots more to come!!

I don't think we are doing anything special for the 4th. Last year we (& the Karps) went to see fireworks here on the Ridge, and that is a possibility. But I've heard it will be close to 100 that day, and that leaves me out of anything outdoors!

Brian is leaving for China soon, and that is exciting. Besides switching jobs, and going to China, he has almost completed bricking in their patio (with Noah's help)!

Well that's it for now....... Happy 4th of July Everyone!!! Let's celebrate our country's freedom while we still have it......
